26 days
I can usually make it 30 days and then I have a relapse but I feel really positive about this time. I am going to meetings, reading books on recovery, and have been watching shows and movies on recovery. Thank you for the new section on movies and shows!
I have been getting lots of headaches this time around. Just the last couple of weeks it started. Advil seems to work though.
I have been craving sugar like my life depends on it and have been eating everything in sight. Just recently on that as well. At least no weight gain and it's great how young I look with the bloating gone. I'm 30 and I recently got mistaken for a high school student.
I have been communicating much more openly with my boyfriend about everything. It's not easy but it's better than alcohol and all that mess that comes along with it.
I have been spending all my 'used to be for alcohol' money on clothes, nice makeup, shoes, and other things. I need to focus on saving soon. I'm not in debt but I am spending a lot on things I never used to spend money on; probably because I never had the money.
I recently took up smoking, only after AA meetings and visits with my mom. Those are stressful times.
But all in all I've been pretty good. I am planning that recovery will stick this time!
